In her closed door pre-pageant interview released by the Miss Universe organization, Miss Universe 2022 R’Bonney Gabriel put a spotlight on the relevance of beauty pageants, adding that she takes pride in being a role model for younger women.
“It was very sad to see because it felt like all my hard work felt overshadowed,” she recalled, admitting that she questioned why it was happening and felt like she didn’t deserve the crown.
R’Bonney then emphasized that she’s working hard to show everyone that she deserves to be representing the USA in the Miss Universe stage, hoping that “time will allow people to see more of who [she is].” “I’m actually the first Filipina-American Miss USA and since I won, there are little girls that message me and they say they see themselves in me,” she shared.
“I’m very focused on showing people the hard work behind it and the advocacy.… It’s really about what you want to give to the world,” she said, adding that she has “big shoes to fill” if she ever wins the Miss Universe crown.
